| Wallace Weber Makes Significant Gift of Land History flows from this land like spring water over a bed of limestone.It's in the breezes of a late winter afternoon, carrying the high songs of sandhill cranes and snow geese that have drifted over central Kansas for thousands of years. It's in old farm equipment, rusted steel hoops and angle irons, artifacts from the long human endeavor to rend a living from the land. Read More |
